ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION (Dealer)
Refer to local regulations in the country of use for anything
that is not specifi cally covered in this manual. In Italy, refer
to standard UNI 10683/2005 in addition to any Regional or
Local Health Authority regulations.
If the stove is to be installed in a block of apartments, consult
the block administration before installing.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The stove must NOT be installed in the same room as extrac-
tors, type B heating appliances and other appliances that may
affect its operation.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLYCONNEC-
TION
(the plug must be accessible)
The stove is supplied with a power cable that is to be con-
nected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fi tted with a
magnetothermic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10%
can damage the stove (unless already installed, an appropriate
differential switch must be fi tted). The electrical system must
comply with the law; particularly verify the effi ciency of the
earthing system. The power line must have a suitable cross-
section for the stove's power. An inadequate earthing system
can cause anomalies for which Edilkamin cannot be held
liable.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
For correct operation the stove must be level.Check the load-
bearing capacity of the fl oor.The stove must be installed in
compliance with the following safety conditions:
- minimum safety distance at the sides and back from medium
level fl ammable materials: 40 cm
- easily fl ammable materials must not be located less than 80
cm from the front of the stove
- if the stove is installed on a fl ammable fl oor, a sheet of heat
insulating material must be placed between the stove andthe
fl oor, which protrudes by at least 20 cm at the sides and 40 cm
at the front.
If it is impossible to comply with the distances given above,
technical/building measures must be taken to avoid all fi re
risks.If the smoke outlet pipe is connected to walls made of
wood or other fl ammable materials, it must be insulated with
ceramic fi bre or other materials with similar characteristics.
AIR INTAKE
The room where the stove is located must have an air intake
with cross section of at least 80cm
of the air consumed by combustion.Alternatively, the stove
air may be taken directly from outside through a 4 cm steel
extension of the pipe. In this case,there may be condensation
problems and it is necessary to protect the air intake with a
grille, which must have a freesection of at least 12 cm².
The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no bends.
It must end with section at 90° facing downwards or be fi tted
with a wind guard.
In any case all the way air intake duct must be a free section
of at least 12 cm².
The external terminal of the air inlet channel must be protec-
ted with an anti-insect netting that does not reduce the
12 cm² through passage.

SMOKE OUTLET
The stove must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke cannot
be discharged into a smoke fl ue used by other devices). The
smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter outlet at the
back of the stove.
A T-section with condensation trap and bleeder must be fi tted
at the beginning of the vertical section.
The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by means of
suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certifi ed.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed. The material used to seal
and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resistant to high
temperatures (high temperature silicone or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long.
It may have up to two 90° bends. If the outlet is not fi tted into
a chimney fl ue, a vertical section and a wind guard are required
(reference UNI 10683/2005).
The vertical duct can be internal or external. If the smoke
channel is outside, it must be appropriately insulated. If the
smoke channel is fi tted inside a chimney fl ue, the latter must be
suitable for solid fuel. If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it
must be improved by entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-
section and is made of suitable material (e.g. 80 mm diameter
steel). All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for
inspection. The chimney pots and smoke ducts connected to
the solid fuel appliances must be cleaned once a year (verify
whether a specifi c legislation exists in your country). Failure to
regularly inspect and clean the stove increases the probability
of a fi re occurring in the chimney pot. In that case, proceed
as follows: Do not use water to extinguish the fi re; Empty the
pellet hopper; Contact specialist personnel before reigniting the
stove. Possible installations are shown in fi gures 1 and 2
TYPICAL EXAMPLES
fi g. 1
A: insulated steel fl ue
B: 1.5 m minimum height
C-E: air intake from inside room
(minimum internal section: 80 cm²)
D: steel fl ue, inside existing brick-built chimney.
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that
of the chimney fl ue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of
the chimney fl ue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind..
